I just got another brookstone rover at a very good price of $60 including shipping and should get it in 2 says or so,going to control both rovers with only one ARC plus a some other hacks
Will be posting my design up in less then a week.
I did not say i am using one computer yet
then WHY does my 2 different computers are able to connect to both ROVERS NOT 100% shore if when i second my other wireless card it will work.
BUT on controlling one computer from another i am using bluetooth with 1 ARC on both of them Thats one ARC PER PC,that i tried and was able to control them
NOW on controlling both from the same master computer using the server module ,i havent tried it yet on rover,does work on my 3 gecko cages.
If doesnt work I know my network guy who a expert a lot longer then you,been at my house over 20 years and he help with any work problem,also use to work for a wireless company
that quote you said about me controoling 2 rovers with one ARC it kinda true I am going to control with one ARC ,only using 2 ARC of them to connect and control and pass data to master computer,other one i dont touch
This my last post,i have when someone says it doest work when they never OWN a ROVER YOU need to buy 2 rovers before you can prove me wrong
Like i said it works perfect on 2 different computers
THERE is another guy who has 2 of them,if he follows my info it will work if doest i can find out what he did wrong
Your Gecko cages do not move via it's built in wifi connection like the Rover.
I have explained it all clearly multiple times. DJ has also explained this to you at least once and confirmed that my explanation is correct. Please take the time to re-read all of these replies. If you are still not understanding why two PCs can connect to two Rovers but one cannot connect to two Rovers without a conflict I suggest you research in to TCP/IP networking. It is a very basic law of TCP/IP networking. You can see similar results by setting static IP addresses on two PCs on the same network and turning them both on... do both receive network connection? No they don't. This is due to the IP conflict.
Going back to the gecko cages and controlling via the server function. This is different. These connect via an EZ-B. The Rover movement does not. ARC is able to read and control anything connected to any digital or analogue port on the EZB connected to it and enabling the server command allows a remote copy of ARC to do the same. It does not allow remote access to a movement panel.
In order to use EZ-Scripts to control the rover, you must first add the rover movement panel. This then allows the EZ-Script functions of Forward, Reverse, Left and Right to work. Without a Movement Panel those four commands don't know what to control. They control the local Movement Panel only. It is impossible to control a remove Movement Panel with these commands. There are no commands for the rover in EZ-Script. It must use those four commands.
Does that make it any clearer?
P.S. If he has been over at your house for over 20 years he is a bit on the slow side
Refrain from making this personal, you have no idea how much experience I have with networking and I have clearly proved myself in this topic. If you want to make this personal we can go down that road but I'm sure it will result in you, me or both of us becoming banned from here which I know would disappoint a lot of people who do take note of what I explain and do appreciate it.
PLEASE not say anything about a person you do not know
WHY does it work on mine tell that RICH
Get off your high horse, you constantly attempt to belittle me by bringing up these people who know so much more than anyone else in the world (despite you being wrong about so many things it's starting to become depressing more than funny), I politely ask you to refrain from making it personal and you tell me to not say anything about the guy?.. Your proctologist called, they found your head.
Why does what work on yours? As far as I can decipher you have not yet successfully managed to connect two rovers to one PC.
I've explained enough times. You have had DJ confirm it in another topic. If you are too ignorant to see that I have been attempting to educate you and explain the whys and the hows to you then what's the point? I'm out, I give up. I'll just await your end result.
Could both of you grow up? Christ sake, it's a God damn robot. It's inanimate, it's something to enjoy. Now how about we bitch at each other after the CONCLUSION of his findings.
Great idea ERREUL
RICH will have to wait for the video,until then BUT YOU know RICH he always wants the last word,it my post and my design works ,if a another person repls to it will try to answer them BUT with RICH HE WANTS THE LAST WORD
Next is to controll them,my findings are true,and since he doesnt own any WHY is he arging on my design, Let others who have both rovers try my idea it works ,
Oh boy...I think I finally understand what Robotbuilder is trying to tell us about this project.
Ok:
If he has 1 PC and ARC controlling Rover A. and another PC and ARC controlling Rover B.
He "thinks" he can use the HTTP Server control to control both devices from a 3rd Master PC. This has not been tested yet and based on what he's told us so far, I don't think it will work.
Here's where I see the problem: Because both Rover PC's are connected via AdHoc to the Rovers, the Master PC won't be able to see the HTTP Server because the Rover PC's will be connected to the Rovers. (I have a Rover and I can't connect to my home network and the Rover at the same time...this proves that once a Rover is connected to a PC, the PC can't talk to another network without some modifications.)
He will need 2 network cards installed in each of the Rover PCs. This, in theory, would allow the Rover PC's to connect to both the Rover and the Master PC. I believe, this will also resolve the IP Conflict because only the individual Rover PCs are connected to the Rovers...not the master PC.
Again, that's untested and I don't have access to a double network enabled PC to help verify.
